SAM SMALL'S BROTHER
Why Did God Make so Much Outdoors? I?
Two WOmen's Experiences.

The proverbial philosophy of "Old
81, the venerable plantation darkey,
who gave to the world through the
medium of Small's pen maxims of
worldly wisdom, clothed in verbiage
of irresistible humor, has found o
permanent place in humorous htera-
ture.
Great surprise was shown when it
was announced that he, having been
converted under the ministrations of
'Sam JONES'" would become an
evangelist.
At first thought, humorist in the
pulpit seems incongruous Is it
really SO?
No doubt the mere buffoon at
tempting to turn mems hearts to
solemn truths would meet with only
contempt. But truth is not hidden
in gloom. Genuine humor frequent
ly illustrates and fastens in the mind
bits of wisdom that would otherwise
| pass unheeded.
In his eulogy of Henry Ward
Beecher, Rev. DIR. Parker says:
whenever he came among men, he
brought June sunshine and music,
and made even desponding and surly
men feel that fuller and warmer
summer, the Kingdom of Heaven
itself was at hand. That is genial
christianity.
Mr.. Small belongs to a witty fami-
ly. He has brother connected
with Annoy Knox's and "Fat Con-
tributor's" Texas Siftings, a paper
which has had phenomenal success
in the field of humorous literature
Mr.. Frank A. Small is the present
representative of that popular paper
in England, and, like his distinguish
ed brother, he takes a deep interest
in the welfare of other people.
Under date of 4S Porten Road,
Kensington w. London, Eng, Sept.
9th, 1887, he writes: "While at
Yalding in Kent yesterday. I met
Prof. S. Williams, Head Master OF
the Cleaves Endowed school. In the
course of conversation about Ameri.
ca, Professor Williams remarked that
Warmers safe cure had been of great
benefit to his wife, who had been
much troubled with disordered
liver. Warmers safe cure IAN Ameri
can preparatory was all she had
taken, and she had experienced none
. of her old trouble for some months
| past"
Mrs. Annie Jenness- Miller, editor
of New York Dress, and a very pop
I ular woman in the fashionable world
says in her own magazine for October
"Warner's safe cure is the onl,
, medicine I ever take or recommend
t In every instance it gives new energ.
, and vitality to all my powers. Thi
. distinguished woman also says tina
! for ladies this great remedy is ''pe
